Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"Her? What's she doing here?!"

"Dad, who is she? Is she some pretty lady?"

Lu Jiacheng downed a mouthful of orange soda and felt incredibly refreshed.

"It's Auntie, calling her 'sister' is too formal. It's alright, let's go ask about train tickets. What do you want to eat? Dad will take you out to eat something nice."

Lu Weiguo didn't explain much, but kept his doubts to himself.

She was the only remaining business partner from a past life, after the ups and downs of their business.

Based on what I know about her, she should still be studying abroad at this time, so why would she appear in this remote small city in the north?

Moreover, in his previous life, he brought her back once to pay respects to their ancestors.

Judging from his expression, it was definitely his first time here, or even his first time in Northeast China, and everything was new and exciting to him.

"My mind is a bit muddled. Let's go buy Mom some gifts first."

Lu Weiguo felt like his brain couldn't keep up, but fortunately there weren't many people taking the train at that time.

Unlike later generations, the end of August is not the peak time for students to go to school.

After paying an extra ten yuan, I successfully exchanged my ticket for a sleeper berth.

Of course, the ten yuan was not the difference in price for the sleeper ticket, but a kickback specifically for the ticket seller.

In Northeast China, almost everyone is used to this situation.

It's unfair, and it does infringe on the rights of many people.

You could say it's fair; it's similar to many ticket-grabbing software programs in later generations.

Some people spend money to buy gas packs or hire scalpers to buy tickets, but he just went directly to the ticket seller.

The Li family's banquet lasted for two whole days.

From Li's relatives and friends to his neighbors.

The event was held the following day specifically for Wu Guifen's old comrades-in-arms.

The fact that the Li family had its first college graduate was a source of great pride and honor for the family.

Lu Weiguo did not complain about any lack of care or anything like that.

After all, he didn't really help much.

Early on the third day.

Li Xiulian then boarded a train to the south.

Lu Weiguo held the child and watched the train turn behind the mountain.

The two children didn't seem to have any particular thoughts; they neither cried nor laughed.

She kept asking when her mother would be back.

After the initial excitement wore off, the elderly couple from the Li family also felt a bit sad.

So they decided to leave the two little ones with their grandparents for a few days.

Driving a tractor, turning the crank handle.

It was already evening when we arrived at Fendou Village.

He sighed inwardly, realizing that he would have to take care of himself from now on.

Without my wife by my side, coming home feels a little awkward...

But as soon as we entered the village...

Suddenly, he was startled when he saw his own direction.

Smoke was actually coming out of the chimney on the roof.

He didn't ask his parents to come and watch the house; they shouldn't be coming at this hour.

Brother and sister-in-law are even less likely to agree.

With two little ones at home, who's at the age where they're causing trouble, how could they possibly have time to help me start the fire?

But it wasn't them?

Could it be...?

With a question in his mind, he parked the car at the entrance, pushed open the door, and went inside.

Inside the courtyard, Wangcai lay on the ground, bored and exposing his belly.

Seeing Lu Weiguo return, she didn't bother to pay him any attention; her round belly clearly indicated that she had been fed that day.

The two little sables weren't afraid of Wangcai.

They lay down beside him, completely treating Wangcai as family.

It's rare to see such a good relationship between diners and ingredients.

Many times, Lu Weiguo felt that the two sables were Wangcai's stored food reserves.

The door was open.

Beside the stove, a figure was cooking over a fire.

Looking from behind.

She had a large bottom and a small waist, and her skin under her vest was snow-white.

Her beautiful hair was simply styled in a bun on her head, a completely different look from her previous attire.

Because in this era, women with their hair up were mostly married young girls.

"Yang Yang?"

With that waist-to-hip ratio, you won't find another person like him in the entire Fendou Village.

Lu Weiguo wasn't puzzled by the person, but rather by why he was there!

"what!"

Zhao Yangyang was startled, clutching her chest and her heart heaving. She raised the spatula in her hand, ready to hit Lu Weiguo.

"Why are you walking so quietly? You scared me!"

Lu Weiguo instinctively stepped in to block it.

It might be because Zhao Yangyang turned around too quickly.

He plopped down on the stove.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the stove is made of bricks and cement.

But once the fire started, the stove got so hot it burned your bottom.

Lu Weiguo stepped forward, afraid that she would get burned, and pulled her up by her crotch.

But this intimate gesture gave Zhao Yangyang an opportunity.

They even dropped the spatula in their hands.

She opened her arms and hugged Lu Weiguo's neck.

"Pah!" Lu Weiguo shoved her away abruptly: "I shouldn't have bothered with you."

"Ouch, I've burned myself again! Help me up, I burned my bottom! Please put some medicine on it!"

With that affected and pretentious manner, she could perfectly embody the role of a scheming woman.

Lu Weiguo ignored her, picked up the spatula from the ground, and rinsed it with cold water from the vat.

Then he asked, "What are you doing here? How do you have a key to my house?"

Zhao Yangyang stood up with a pout and patted his round bottom.

With each slap, her buttocks rose and fell, making Lu Weiguo dizzy.

Logically speaking, there weren't many gyms back then, and fitness theories hadn't yet become popular here.

How does she have such a figure?

It's simply a gift from heaven.

A gift from God.

"Xiulian gave it to me. She's gone, so she asked me to take care of you, whether it's your stomach or other parts of your body."

Besides, school starts in October, which means I can take care of you for a month. After that, you'll be living in the county, right?

Regular universities typically start their semester in September.

The Workers-Peasants-Soldiers University was a quota-based system designed to differentiate itself from those admitted through regular entrance exams.

It usually takes about a month.

As for military training or anything like that, they simply didn't exist back then.

Even if they did, would these workers, peasants, and soldiers from universities even need training?

"Do I need you to take care of me? When have you ever seen me at home, when have you ever let Xiulian cook a meal?"

Lu Weiguo shook his head and said.

"But I still have to do the laundry and clean the house, right? Weiguo, I know you don't like me, but... but I'm leaving in a month too."

My dad said I can't come back. Let me spend this month with you.

Zhao Yangyang stopped smiling, lowered her head, and played with her fingers with a wronged expression.

"Besides, you haven't applied any medicine to my legs for several days. My legs still hurt, and they were so itchy last night that I scratched the blisters until they popped."

Nobody cared about me, Weiguo. It'll only be a month. I won't bother you again after that.

"I'm really not annoyed anymore." Seeing this, Lu Weiguo softened a little.

Men are more responsive to gentle persuasion than force.

If a woman is gentle, teasing a man is no different from teasing a dog.

It's such a simple logic, yet most women in later generations don't understand it.

"Really, I swear, I swear on your light bulb."

Upon hearing this, the unlit light bulb inexplicably flickered.

Then a thunderclap appeared in the sky.

Startled, Zhao Yangyang quickly hid in Lu Weiguo's arms.

"It was an accident, absolutely an accident, oh... I'll never swear again."
